A Jacobean three storey school opened by Thomas Guthrie, a 'preacher and philanthropist' whose statue is in Princes Street, and one of the leaders of the 1843 Disruption. The gable to Ramsay Lane has hoodmoulded windows and carries the date 1850.
The door to Ramsay Lane has a sculpted stone in the shape of an open bible over it, with the inscription 'Search the Scriptures', quoted from the Book of John.
There is another shaped gable overlooking the courtyard of the Outlook Tower towards the main street. The ground floor of this building is now used as a shop for the Outlook Tower with a ground floor entrance from the courtyard. [from SCRAN]
He has made everything beautiful in it's time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. (NIV)
For my about-to-turn-8 daughter.
I'm terribly proud of myself - didn't have to buy a thing, and it's so cute!
It's "regular" size (i.e. not compact) and there should be room inside for a little notebook as well. If I did it again I might think about adding a plain, flat pocket on the back as well.

We found these pages stuffed into cracks in the the face of the mountains, in villages around Skardu (which is in the utmost north of Pakistan)
I'm not sure why the pages were placed there. We hypothesized that it was perhaps a respectful or traditional way of disposing of old or damaged copies of the Quran. In Karachi I know that people often throw them into the sea.
We also hypothesized that it could be a means of making a religious plea, or prayer.
Either could be wrong of course.

The Easter week at Shree Peetha Nilaya was blessed with blue skies, warm sun, and flowers and trees blossoming everywhere. Everything seemed to reflect the theme of new beginnings. Easter is an intense focus on God and God's plan, and everyone present honoured and celebrated this through scripture, song, self-reflection and community. Finishing with the traditional midnight/early morning singing and dancing, and the ever-popular Easter Sunday lunch, it was a powerful way to recognise spiritual transformation and a new understanding of life.
